Tommy is sporting a shirt from Crazy 8.
And a rose lollipop that I thought could be used as a fun prop.
I handed it to Tommy and he was like, “What do I do with this?”
“You smile with it,” I suggested.
So he did.
Then he was like, “What if I close my eyes?”
“If that’s what you want to do, Tommy.”
“What if I want to act mad?”
“Go ahead.”
“I pledge allegiance, to my rose lollipop!”
“Great, Tommy.”
“Mommy? This lollipop doesn’t smell good.”
“Fine, you can put it down. Can I have a nice smile?”
“Er...with your eyes opened, Tommy?”
“Very cute.”
“I’m pretending to be an old man thinking.”
“Okay? How about you give me smiles again? Think about…farts.”
And then he started to think, “Man, my Mom is nuts. But at least she lets me talk about farts unlike my weird friend’s parents who claim that farts are an inappropriate subject matter.”
Yeah. We’re a family who laughs at inappropriate things.
And Tommy loves it.

Farts. Works on my kids every time.
And the "Old Man Thinking" is spot on.
Love these!
great photos....FART! Love it. Some words will always be silly. Like bellybutton.
PS - there is nothing cuter than a kid without his two front teeth. Glad you captured that moment :)
Woot! First comment? No, because this isn't working. ugh, wordpress.
You and your husband seriously make beautiful kids. You could sell embryos and make bank or something.

A very handsome young man :)
1. Adorable son.
2. I don't care how old you are...farts are always a hilarious subject matter.
He is so adorable! Love the story line that goes with the pictures, too. And no running into the side of the house?!?
Tommy - quite the handsome chap.
You've got beautiful children!
Annnnd -- yes, the eight-year-old-boy-humour gland is alive and well in me too.
Farts.
Fart.
Farts.
The word itself makes me grin. I wish it found itself in more conversations...
Love the pics!! He's a handsome guy!!
My boys hate to have their picture taken too and love to talk about farts. They think it's especially
funny if I say the word 'fart'.
Oh my goodness both your kids are adorable. Good job on that!
Have a great day!
Great! Now Natalie has some photo competition, and it sounds like you don't have to run into the wall to get a smile.
I love the fake tie! Super cute.
Farts are great for smiles. Love those photos. He is adorable.
Those are fantastic photos. he's very handsome. and i love crazy 8
Those photos are so cute! He's adorable. It's especially amusing to see the dialogue that goes along with the pictures.
These pictures are the best. He is so adorable.
These are awesome photos! What a cutie!
And mentioning the word "farts" works every time with my kids, too. The next best thing? Making fart noises while snapping the photos. It cracks them up!
Great pics! The word "fart" makes me laugh too
Awesome.
I love these photos.
And farts are funny and totally should be talked about. B/c we all do it.
We have wars in our house. My 6-year-old informed me the other day that popcorn makes the best farts (loudest and longest) but eggs make the stinkiest ones (usually silent-but-deadly). Little boys are so much fun!
oh my gosh, that boy of yours is so freaking cute.
Oh man! He's friggin' adorable too! You and your hubby certainly make beautiful kids!
So cute! I'm jealous you got such good photos.
Those are fantastic photos and I love the commentary. Wonderful!!
I have to admit, prior to being a mom i didn't think farts would ever be an appropriate subject matter...now i have two boys and i'm usually the ringleader of such inappropriate subjects lol
and btw, tommy is absolutely adorable :)
Tommy should be a model!! He's adorable :)
PS-- I want that tee shirt!!
You need to download the iFart app if you have a smartphone!! It works like a charm! I especially like the "Dirty Raoul" ;)
You can also set the phone up to fart when the next person moves it... could be amusing!
aaahhhhhh.... so so sooooo adorable!
i would love to meet you and your family! :)♥
Precious! Loved that age with my kids - hope those pics got sent to your hubby!
My sister manages the Crazy 8 in Indianapolis. She always hooks our kids up with clothes.
He looks good.
I don't know if I've seen photos of him before he he sure is a cutie. He has the cutest smile.
Those are great shots of a very cute kid! I gotta say, though, that first shot is perfect. The t-shirt tie and the popsicle rose make him the perfect kid suitor!
Geez Louise, I want a rose lollipop!
If you've already mentioned it, I totally missed that he lost his tooth! He's so cute.
Awww. What a handsome little guy you have there.
I like his "old man thinking" face. Oh, and his mad face. What a 'tude!
O farts and how thee brings smiles on so many faces.
Personally, I love the phrase "dusty fart"...don't know why but it makes me giggle.
Tommy is a doll ;)
Super photos! He's a natural.
Brilliant photos and I LOVE the shirt. I want one.
Very impressive old man thinking picture.

Great pictures of the birthday boy! How cute! You have a great eye!
He is ADORABLE! Love his SMILE!
Great pics!
Awesome pics...great subject:)
You know, he really is a gorgeous boy. Even without the front tooth, he's sizzling!
Man, your kid is CUTE! He's actually my favorite age for kids. The 'lost tooth but old enough to talk about anything' age. :)
That shirt -- and the kid inside it -- are adorable. Love his old man thinking look!
